It's Looking Better

The blog quality is about to improve. No, I'm not going to start proofreading my posts, but at least the photos will be getting better.

Luke and I agreed to buy a camera that could take wide angle photos. We are planning on selling the house ourselves and thought it would be nice to have better pictures. Then my brother offered us his "old" camera that was too slow for outdoor photography. Take a look a the difference.

Old Camera- Floors

New Camera - Floors

Old Camera - Kitchen

New Camera - Kitchen

In addition to having a wide-angle lens the new camera also has twice the resolution and much better optical zoom so I can get pictures of Atlas hamming it up without spooking him by getting too close.

I have yet to read the owner's manual and figure out all the settings but I have a lot of lunch breaks to kill over the next few weeks. Hopefully by the time I start making flyers for the house I'll have this camera figured out.

When we bought the house the basement was classified as unfinished. The previous owners had made a haphazard effort to convert some of it into living space, but the carpentry was so bad that you would have to be drunk to consider it livable. From what we have heard about the previous owners drunk was probably how the work was done. Anyway, this space at the bottom of the stairs was used as two bedrooms; one directly in front of you and the other through the door to the left. We moved the bedrooms to the far corner of the basement so they could share an egress window well and used the two bedrooms as one large media room. The tray ceiling hides the pipes for the radiant floor heat and also distracts the eye from the beam running down the middle of the room. While we needed the tray in in one spot for practical reasons running it all the way around the room created a nice visual effect. The basement stays comfortably warm from the radiant heat for the 1st floor but we also added a ga…

I recently announced that we had sold our home in Helena and will be moving to my hometown in July. We did some house-hunting over Easter weekend and I'm please to report success. We are in the process of buying our latest home:
I know you can't see it well behind the trees. I'm so excited to have actual trees on the property. The house itself is nestled against the base of a hill which will block our views of the sunset but the east-facing front porch should offer some wonderful sunrises. And here's a sneak peek of our view.
I won't be posting any more photos until we've actually closed on the house. Closing is still two months away and a lot could change before then. Still, I look forward to sharing our latest project.

We sold our house last week. This may come as a surprise since the house wasn't even for sale.
We weren't planning to move. Everything in the house was designed with the idea that we would be living here for years. But sometimes God makes it abundantly clear that He has other plans. In the course of just a few days Luke was offered a chance to move to his company branch in my hometown and we met a family looking for a house in our neighborhood. And now our house is under contract.
Closing is scheduled for mid-July so I will have a little time to recover from having the baby, but until she arrives I've been packing up all our non-essentials. We have already started looking for our next home; maybe it will be a home we get to enjoy for decades. We'll just have to wait and see.
